Wasn't any need for me to write this article. I think, zeus, you've just summed my position up perfectly.

i think busybodies who obsess on how *other* people play the game are destabilizing gameworlds–emotionally destabilizing gameworlds. this emotional blackmail has to stop! no more storms in teacups over youth wages, offline rights, rejecting match challenges, etc… please… it's just too traumatic and i don't have the budget for therapy.

its the same thing, people who havent got JP or JP5 want 5 star kids for cheap wages. sorry aint going to happen and on the other sand, senior teams with high wages also want kids who are 5 star kids but cant afford however much 5 star kids go for on that GW. End of the day a youth team pays alot of money for top teams and sells them on for top money, but has proberly lost alot of money paying them high wages in the process. It equals its self out, and most all youth teams have the coaching to go with it, so the GW is getting the talent it needs, but sorry that is ALWAYS going to come at a price.

I thnink the new youth system will solve a lot of problems, but I have 2 suggestions for SI:

Managers who are offline for 1-2 months should have their players' contract changed to auto rebid, we have managers who last signed in from 6 months and they have good players on auto-protect(they are not even playing as they are without an FA!!)

Every club should get a basic youth academy, it will help managers start a youth team. On the other hand managers that are not interested in youths can sell/release them
